Transformational Speaking

A program of Hollyhock Centre & sponsored by Hollyhock Leadership

If you want to change the world, tell a better story.   

The ability to move others comes from eliminating fear and distrust of expressing your deepest values.  In this lively experiential program, give voice to what has fire and meaning for you and explore speaking from your place of personal power and authenticity. 

Get results by making an emotional connection with others so they hear what you are saying. Rather than imposing techniques that remove you from your passion, learn to trust your inherent capacity to communicate and celebrate your individuality. Emerge with a clear statement of your gifts and talents, of what’s real in your life, and what’s next.  Attendance is limited to 16 to allow brief personal coaching.

"Perfect for anyone who cares deeply about their mission and wants to express it with depth, clarity and passion."  Nina Utne, Utne Reader

"Gail's workshop was extraordinarily helpful in giving me a framework for embracing public speaking with confidence."  Joel Solomon, President of Renewal Partners, Executive Director of the Endswell Foundation and Board Chair of Hollyhock.
